I've been an atheist for many years now. But since I live in Kentucky, I don't go around broadcasting it. I only talk about when somebody asks me a question about religion.

Luckily, my parents were not big church-goers. So I never had my mind brainwashed by religious superstition like many of my friends, family, and neighbors. I've always wondered if I would've become an atheist if my parents were devout church-goers.
